Are you insinuating that religious people aren't rational? Because I am not making any comments about religion itself, only that religious people are not irrational or "clingy" or "bitter" with every aspect of our lives.

Nope, just wanted to point out that there is nothing rational about faith in and of itself, as that is essentially the definition of the word "faith". That says nothing towards how people live the other aspects of their lives, however, and I agree with the rest of what you say.
